Traveling with a toddler
We had an amazing stay at the Four Seasons. We traveled with our 13 month old toddler and everybody was more than accommodating to his needs, which was very appreciated by us! The grounds are immaculate and so serene, it is a beautiful place! The rooms are spacious and modern, with everything you might need available while there. Highly recommend to stay there when visiting Kyoto!

Considering what this hotel costs, it’s a bit charmless, with miles long dim hallways and an utterly confusing system of elevators and entrances. The room, however, was great, the housekeeping staff very polite, and the restaurants fine, especially the buffet breakfast.
